Breast reduction. Is it normal to fear the anesthetic?

August 10, 2014
Asked By:Lovelena14 in Modesto, CA

My surgery for breast reduction is scheduled for tomorrow, I run a little lower on the blood pressure and my heart rate also runs a little lower, should I be concerned about being out out? My heart doc was sending all my notes so the anesthesiologist would know. What questions should I ask him? Nervous about not waking up, is that a normal fear for most people having surgery?
